Happy Three Kings Day! Hope you had a good one.
When Emma Dog and I arrived at the Rio Grande Nature Center wildfowl preserve – which is now referred to, it seems, as “Candelaria Farms“ – we found ourselves confronting this:
Crane jailbreak!
Yes, it was Greater Sandhill Cranes, clearly plotting to bust outta the wire.
The event is chronicled in this series of photographs, originally posted with Twitter and Yfrog: 2, 3, and 4.
In the end they made it out – with a bullet in their … no, actually, with no problems at all.
Clearly, I’m overly influenced by AC/DC’s “Jailbreak.”
Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a fine New Year transition. Mine were quite pleasant, thank you.
I’m a bit slammed finishing an action/adventure novel plus my story rewrite for the upcoming Wild Cards book, Fort Freak. Been a bit under the weather: woke up yesterday to as nasty and intense a coughing fit as I can remember, followed by feeling miserable all day. Today I felt somewhat better, although not much.
Tomorrow I hit my stride again. Hit the ground running!
Literally, or close to it: for the past couple weeks every morning I’ve gone out for a short but increasingly long run right after getting up and feeding the critters. Didn’t do it yesterday or today, although I did obviously take Emma for a walk. Plan to get back to it tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Now I think I’ll go watch Cloverfield from Netflix and go to sleep.
If you can snarf a copy of “Cleavagefield,” make it a double feature…

I, uhh, missed that one.
Google search – ahh. Jim Wynorski. Haven’t seen anything from him for a while. Good to see he’s still up to his usual … form.
I have to admit I did watch the trailer. And I much admired one line from it: “I want whoever finds this videotape to know, that I had more fun dying than they ever did living.”
Cloverfield I much enjoyed. More than I expected to, in fact. Been watching a lot of movie lately, thanks to joining Netflix. I find it helps me be more productive because it helps me spend less time, uh, online.
Been meaning to blog about some of the movies I’ve seen of late – Cloverfield, 9, My Super Ex-Girlfriend – but this isn’t the kind of writing I need to be doing right now…
